    I'm Shennae, 22, from Western Australia. I am a disabled asexual woman. I feel like talking to my family about my sexuality or lack thereof is like banging my head against a brick wall. My mum just tells me my sister was the same until she was 28 (she had weight loss surgery and was confident enough to go out like a normal woman her age for the first time and met her husband somewhere) or some shit like "i get it, you don't want to share your stuff" or tells me "if you're not straight, you're gay". I'm glad my friends I talk to regularly online don't make me go through what it means over and over and try to tell me I will change my mind.

    • acidmoxJun 01, 2016 at 5:57 AM

      Keep being you! I love your attitude and I'm glad your friends understand too. Family can be just so difficult, and it doesn't even have to be about sexuality haha family is just difficult and stupid sometimes. But you keep being you, you're awesome!

    • curvy_deeJun 03, 2016 at 8:59 PMΔ

      waves hi from across the ditch in NZ

      • pillbobagginsJun 03, 2016 at 10:04 PMΔ

        my mother is a Kiwi, where in NZ are you from? She has lived in both Auckland and Christchurch and now resides in Perth, Australia. I have a very nasally Kiwi accent because of her and my swollen sinuses!

      • curvy_deeJun 03, 2016 at 10:28 PM

        I'm up in Auckland - been here for counts eep, 30 years (I'm 38). I'm over in Melbourne approximately once a years, as I have a partner there, but otherwise I'm pretty much a homebody :) I have an Uncle who moved from Taranaki to live in WA back in the late '90s, though.

  • QuinnApr 26, 2016 at 10:53 AMΔ

    Hi everyone! I'm Quinn, I'm a 21-year old lesbian trans woman based out of south west London. Still on the waiting list for gender therapy, and I'm out to my family and some of my friends. I do a little bit of web design, and I'm currently looking for software development apprenticeships to move forward with my career. Nice to meet you all!

    • PrettyIceCubeApr 28, 2016 at 3:35 PMΔ

      Heya Quinn hope things go well for you.

  • catApr 25, 2016 at 6:45 PMΔ

    Hi! :) I'm cat. I'm a lesbian and university student in southern California. I realized I was gay from video games. My other hobbies include drawing, cooking, and retching at heterosexuality in pop media.

  • ChloeVDawsonMay 16, 2016 at 3:33 AM

    Hi everyone :) I'm Chloe, I'm a 19 year old bisexual trans girl from Virginia, USA. I have my appointment for HRT this Wednesday and I'm so excited!

    Also I'm really excited to be here, this community seems so cool c:

  • finacran193Apr 25, 2016 at 3:20 PMΔ

    Hello :D

    I'm finacran193. I'm a trans woman, 11 months hrt, out to my family. Thanks for making this community!

    • PrettyIceCubeApr 28, 2016 at 2:37 PMΔ

      Hey fancy seeing you here :-)

  • IBYMBYBMYLMay 27, 2016 at 8:52 PM

    Hey, I'm IBYMBYBMYL. I'm a 19 year old bisexual trans girl, pre everything. My passions include music, activism in various forms, video games and other things.

  • veerserifApr 25, 2016 at 3:06 PMΔ

    Hi! I'm veer, I grew up in Hong Kong but came to the States for college. I'm a senior, about to graduate, and I do queer and feminist games studies (which is to say: I read a lot of queer, feminist, and critical theory, then try and apply them to video games). I used to be a lot more involved in the campus queer community but I've been slowly retreating from it for reasons of my own. I am also a hobbyist calligrapher, enthusiastic cook, and drink far too much tea :)

  • AlaeithApr 30, 2016 at 10:36 AMΔ

    Hello, I am a 20 year old bisexual trans women from Kansas. About 10 months on HRT was off for a few months so hard to define really how long I have been on it. Out everywhere except for work so that means I gotta play boy in public as it is a small town. I do work at a college as a Network Engineer and possibly might start teaching classes next year.

  • swords_and_wordsMay 02, 2016 at 12:52 PMΔ

    Hello! I'm Samantha. I'm asexual, and I haven't really figured out my romantic orientation yet. Most of my friends know, but I haven't really come out to my family (other than my brother). I enjoy reading and writing, and I also fence.

  • sporusMay 05, 2016 at 10:05 AMΔ

    Hi, I'm Julian I'm a transman, pre everything and out to some people. I live in Costa Rica

  • natcatMay 07, 2016 at 2:21 PM

    Hi everybody! I'm nat, I'm a trans gal/nonbinary, pansexual-ish and I'm not out to many people but I hope to be soon (: I like obscure music and reading books about philosophy, math, and languages. Recently I've had a pretty big interest in movies as well.

  • KrenkoApr 26, 2016 at 7:05 PMΔ

    Hey, I'm Krenko and I'm ambigiously queer. I live in California, I'm a goblin that hides in a cave at all times, and I enjoy coffee a whole lot. I like talking, I feel like I'm kind enough.

  • BeaMay 09, 2016 at 5:11 AM

    Hi, I'm Bea from Germany, lesbian and due to my job and my mostly old-fashioned and intolerant family I'm only out to a few people yet. Hope Imzy is the right place to be- some other communities ( not naming names ) turned out rather horrible.

  • SomeRandomKatMay 24, 2016 at 11:32 AM

    Hi, I'm Kat from SE England. I'm 18 years old and as far as I'm aware I'm bisexual but in no rush to figure it out. Only my closest friends and sister know about my sexuality. I like playing video games and planning to start studying artificial intelligence later this year at university.

  • iamanisland413May 26, 2016 at 1:42 PM

    Hi, I'm Ruth, or Jacob when I'm male. I'm a 15-year-old pansexual greyromantic genderfluid person. I live in East Tennessee. I'm out publicly.

  • AnonymousKnowledgeSaturdayAlisaMay 13, 2016 at 8:22 AMΔ

    Hi, i'm Hannah, i'm 19 pre everything trans mtf. Currently only out to my friend(close friend, also in love with her etc.), one of her friends(?) and my mom.

    Hopefully i can get to a therapist soon and start transition.

    EDIT: can't seem to find how to make a new profile for here, that's why i'm anon(imzy won't allow it or something... weird)

  • greenieApr 25, 2016 at 1:22 PMΔ

    Hi! Glad to see this community open up!

    I'm greenie. I live in the woods with two and a half cats and 1/4 of a dog. I drink a lot of tea and I'm a pretty mediocre knitter. I've been involved in building a number of online lgbt/queer communities, so I'm always excited to see new ones pop up, and I'm excited to see what the imzy platform has to offer in that regard.

    I live roughly 45 minutes from the closest grocery store, and probably two hours from the closest gay bar. There are a couple gay guys in my town, they're middle aged lumberjacks and very nice. But generally speaking I don't have local queer community, so online ones end up being fairly important to me.

    Best of luck with this board! 🌈 🌈🌈

    • FrogApr 25, 2016 at 1:45 PMΔ

      Hi greenie! I'm hopeful for Imzy, too. Trying to wean myself off of a certain other giant discussion board platform.

      I'm on campus, and theoretically there's a queer community somewhere around here, but I haven't spotted any in the wild yet. So the Internet fills that role for me, too. 🌈

      Living in the woods sounds super peaceful. I hope your half-cat and quarter-dog are doing well out there! 😉

      • greenieApr 25, 2016 at 3:27 PMΔ

        My half cat and quarter dog do quite well living out here in the woods. Though tick season is starting up, which isn't great for quarter dog :p

        Also I found a couple queers (veer and fina, below) and brought them over here :D

  • EmmaCaterineMay 08, 2016 at 7:02 AM

    Hello! I'm Emma, 25 y/o trans lady law student living in Brooklyn, NY, originally from podunk nowhere Virginia. Mostly I'm here to help by sharing various resources, especially harm reduction (drug use, sex work, etc.) and legal stuff.

  • CitrusMay 28, 2016 at 5:49 AMΔ

    Hi, I'm a 25 year old gay guy in Northern VA, only out to close friends. I don't think my family would beagainst me being gay, but they definately don't expect it. Occasionally they'd give me advice on raising a traditional family which I'm not at all interested in. I like some video games and love to run.

    • greenieMay 28, 2016 at 6:28 AMΔ

      Heya! What sort of video games do you like?

      • CitrusMay 28, 2016 at 1:47 PMΔ

        Mostly indie games on steam like to the moon or cave story. Other than that, portable stuff

  • acidmoxJun 01, 2016 at 5:52 AMΔ

    Hi everyone! I'm Staci, I'm 26 (in a month so let's just call it 26 ;) ) and I'm a bisexual cis woman. Sometimes I get confused about everything really. I know I love men and women whether they are cis or trans, but sometimes I feel like I'm being erased or something with the name "pansexual" and other labels, when I feel like "bisexual" is what most represents my sexual orientation. I'm engaged, sorry ladies and gents ;) but I'd love to meet new friends on here! I'm out to all of my friends and some of my family. I don't see the point in raising the issue for the other members of my family.

  • PrettyIceCubeApr 28, 2016 at 2:41 PMΔ

    Heya everyone :-)

    I'm PrettyIceCube, trans {something femme placeholder}, femme + enby sexual and panromantic. I'm 3 months on HRT and living full time as me.

    I'm from New Zealand, Waikato region and would love to meet IRL any trans peeps that are nearby.

    • TortugaNeve2Apr 28, 2016 at 3:22 PMΔ

      You made it here OvO

      • PrettyIceCubeApr 28, 2016 at 3:31 PMΔ

        Yeah I did

      • TortugaNeve2Apr 28, 2016 at 3:33 PMΔ

        :)

  • UndyneJun 15, 2016 at 10:32 AMΔ

    I'm Lina, 20 years old as of today. I'm a trans woman living in Austria and yet still closeted and pre everything, though I'm planning on coming out soon and starting HRT asap.

  • spookyqueerMay 31, 2016 at 10:48 AMΔ

    Hi! I'm Kayley, I'm 26 and I'm a panromantic gray-area demisexual cis woman, though I tend to be attracted to women and NB folks much more often than men. I usually just say I'm queer when asked, because sometimes you get a little tired of explaining the specifics, which I'm sure many of you also understand, haha. I love drag, concerts, video games, and art. My first memorable crush on a girl was Queen Amidala in Star Wars Episode I when I was 10, which just really explains a lot about me as a human being (aka a big ol' queer nerd.) :)

  • lissadabunnyJul 08, 2016 at 9:19 PM

    Hello^_^ I am Lissa (or bunny haha). I am 16 years old female, lives in Kansas, i am in search for a councelor for my genderfluidness, also how i am bisexual. I do art. Nice to meet everyone! I like men...yep pretty much!

  • yoelriAug 06, 2016 at 2:00 PM

    Hi, I'm Yoel, i'm 29 from Israel. I'm gay, married and oh-so-happy with him. I'm here mainly for the people. I believe in creating communities, connecting people and making a little bit of a better world where everyone can feel he has a place and someone to rely on. I'm moving soon to San Francisco with a startup i work with- also about creating communities. Very happy to be here

  • curvy_deeJun 03, 2016 at 8:58 PM

    Hi everyone! I'm Dee, from Auckland in New Zealand. I'm queer, poly, kinky and fat; used to be a sex-blogger but now in business for myself as a trained counsellor (specifically for the rainbow kink and poly community). I'm also a big fan of tea (Earl Grey specifically), reading (SO much reading), recharge time for this introvert, and - she's making me say this - the beastly feline :)

  • FaetouchedJun 13, 2016 at 11:27 PM

    Hello! I'm an agender asexual in Cali, I love animals, knitting, gardening and making herbal teas, salves and other useful things. I am soon to start study as a vet assistant, and hopefully from there go on to become a full vet.

  • CBrachyrhynchosJul 20, 2016 at 8:12 PM

    I'm Kirk, 45, Southeastern United States. I prefer bi or queer, although I don't mind pan or fluid. Gender questioning or gender uncertain or agender. He/Him is good for now.

    I'm working my way out of the closet after a few decades of letting it slide due to extended family and other constraints. I obsessively collect links to articles and research on biphobia.

  • Alice KileDec 04, 2016 at 2:21 AM

    Hello, I'm Alice Kile - I am from India and I want to become a girl :D I am 17 yr old so I am in the high school rightnow, I will go to USA next year for transitioning.. hopefully :O

  • StormWithSkinNov 19, 2016 at 4:00 PM

    Hey, I'm completely new to the app ^^ I'm an 18y/o Pan girl and honestly I'm sick of having no friends lmao. I'm from the UK and I act, direct, and take photos :3 I also write a lot ^^ even though I'm a Drama kid I'm ridiculously introverted aha 😅

  • KariJayJun 16, 2016 at 4:48 AMΔ

    Hi! Quick question: I'm cis and straight. I'm here to learn. Can I stay?

  • HadassahSep 22, 2016 at 4:51 AM

    Hi! I'm bisexual, demisexual, and Canadian. I'm a writer of poetry, short stories, fanfiction, and songs.

  • unholyexhalationMar 21 at 6:15 PM

    there's some grassroots stuff in my area that i keep in touch with, but i'm stuck at home a lot and only moved here last year. (smallish ontario city, not in the GTA). so i thought it might be nice to-- well, i've got friends that live further out i keep in touch with, but i thought joining an online community might be a good way to make more, and know what's going on in the world? you know?

  • thewizardofgaysAug 20, 2016 at 12:25 PM

    Hey! I'm Sara. I'm a 20 year old lesbian(?) in Austin Texas. I helped found a queer sorority on my campus, so I love joining queer communities and growing with them. Can't wait to see what imzy has to offer!

  • PowderJun 21, 2016 at 5:42 PMΔ

    Hi! I'm Tath, or Powder. I'm bigenderflux (nb man/nb woman), aroflux, biromantic and demisexual. I understand most of these labels aren't so common, but I am what I am. -shrugs-

    I'm from Brazil, and I'm currently studying Leisure and Tourism at the University of São Paulo, and I'm also going to tech school to study photography.

    I'm here because it's always nice to meet new LGBTQIAP+ communities, especially because I'm currently making a site with resources in Portuguese for the community.

  • Anne_TilneySep 21, 2016 at 7:38 AM
